Do we really have go over this again? I guess so.

Now, as to who may keep and bear those weapons they didn't say. Everyone? Militia members? The state itself in an armory?

They did say during all the references about the militia that you like to claim ties the right to militias. In their statement they gave a history of militias and that militias were male citizens of certain ages. Therefore, they stated that citizens are the ones that have the right.

Exactly. As part of a state militia.

Like you said, the court made many references to a militia. No need to do that if they were talking about an individual right.
